The only trouble I've run in with my euro wagon was the state's brilliant computer system didn't recognize the VIN. They wanted to make it a late '90's sedan or something. They kept asking me if I was sure it was an '85 I invited them to come look at the car themselves, they did not indulge.

Anyway, a supervisor had to override something and assign me a new VIN (they dropped the WDB off the beginning because that part isn't raised on the VIN plate and didn't transfer on the rubbing). Other than that, just about everything has been fine. Some things are different from the US spec models, but so far everything that I've needed has been available.

Go for it..good luck.
